Physaloptera clausa is a genus of parasitic nematodes from the family Physalopteridae, responsible for pathologic lesions in the hedgehog stomach. Infection by P. clausa may cause anorexia and weight loss. In the present study, nine hedgehogs, killed by road accidents in different parts of Mazandaran, were transferred to the laboratory. After dissection, parasite samples collected from the stomach were transferred into 70 % alcohol. After clarification by lactophenol and staining, the nematodes were identified as P. clausa according to guidelines stipulated by Yamaguti. For histopathological examination, tissue samples were collected from the stomach. The tissues were fixed, and following routine processing, sections were stained with haematoxylin and eosin. Microscopic diagnoses included hyperaemia, eosinophilic gastritis, epithelial hyperplasia, and different parts of P. clausa in the stomach. Eosinophilic gastritis was accompanied by eosinophilic infiltration in various layers of the gastrointestinal tract. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
